About the Event
Built in 1985, the Powell Observatory is located about 25 miles South of Kansas City in Lewis-Young Park, just North of Louisburg, KS. Â At this location, skies are much darker than in the city. Â The observatory has one of the largest telescopes open to the public in a five-state area - the Ruisinger Telescope, a Newtonian reflector with a 30" diameter mirror. The telescope is installed in a 20 foot dome, with an equatorial fork mount and computerized control systems.
This will be an evening of fun and learning as we use their telescopes to look into the sky!Â
